Well, I am very proud to announce that Pattern #4 is born...."ONCE UPON A CHRISTMAS"...a fun quilt project, comprised of Paper-pieced trees, embelished with fun buttons, sashing, setting squares and a border.....

Finished size: 42" x 58"

A great project - even for someone with little or now paper-piecing experience - because of the size of the pieces......

This is the perfect size for a throw or Christmas Wallhanging....

I would like to thank everyone who has supposed BILL LOCKE DESIGNS so far - and I look forward to bringing you many more fun projects...

For anyone who wishes to purchase this or another pattern, each Pattern has a BUY-NOW button on the right size of my blog home page.

About Me

Quilting is my passion! Fabric has been a part of my life since I sat at my grandmother’s knee and watched her creatve wonderful things on her antique WHITE machine; manuyally turning that machine to work magic.
Home décor has already played a big role in my professional life; and truly, fabric has followed me all the way.... But quilting and patchwork is my absolute passion; especially WOOL APPLIQUE.
Quilting is like coloring when I was a kid - except my crayons now are called fabrics and wools.....and my coloring book pages are the creations made with these pieces.
I am thankful and blessed with the ability to be a part of this huge quilting .
My Quilting World revolves around my Quilting Studio, where I have fun and create; and also supply fun quilting and sewing books, patterns and notions to my clients; to my office where I am often found penning for my blog, or at my sewing machine where I enjoy turning scraps into treasures.
Yes, I enjoy patchwork, but I am also totally head-over-heels in love with Wool Applique.
My other joy is to share with all of you - my fellow creative friends, in this fabulous creative world!
Blessings to all,
Bill
